A Thing Going On
Composer(s): J.J. Cale
Performer(s): J.J. Cale



Look here we got a thing going on
Never fear we got a thing going on
Ain't nothing to it
Got to get down and do it
I tell you the truth
Ain't jivin' you
Lord, Lord, we got a thing going on
Something in this place
It's on every face
It's catching fever
You just can't leave her
Look here we got a thing going on
Never fear we got a thing going on
What we gonna do
We're gonna roll through
Do it right, keep it light
Lord, Lord, we got a thing going on
Look here we got a thing going on
Never fear we got a thing going on

Walking In Your Shadow
Composer(s): David Byron; Paul Newton
Performer(s): Uriah Heep



I'm walking in your shadow
Ever since you went away
And the clock on the wall
Really hasn't very much to say 
For you left me bleeding
And left me needing you

In so very many ways
I was trying to attract your mind
But I'm the lonely one
'Cause I had to leave it all behind

Lied and deceiving
Why should I be grieving you

Ride on a golden wave
Set sail for the sun
Make every cloud your slave
Don't be alone

When I get back from trip of the ocean wall
Still walking in your shadow
And still looking for somewhere to hide

If I am worse off
It's all because of you

A Thing Called Love
Composer(s): Jerry Reed
First recording/First release by: Jerry Reed - 1968
Covered by multiple other artists



Six foot six he stood on the ground
Weighed two hundred and thirty-five pounds
But I saw that giant of a man brought down
To his knees by love

He was the kind of man to gamble on luck
Look you in the eye and never back up
But I saw him crying like a little whipped pup
Because of love

Can't see it with your eyes, hold it in your hand
Like the wind it covers our land
Strong enough to rule the heart of any man
This thing called love 
It can lift you up, it can put you down
Take your world and turn it all around
Ever since time nothin's ever been found
Stronger than love

Most men are like me, they struggle and doubt
Trouble their minds day in and day out
Too busy with livin' to worry about
A thing called love

But then I see a mother's tenderness
As she holds her young close to her breast
Then I thank my God this world was blessed
With a thing called love

Can't see it with your eyes, hold it in your hand
Like the wind it covers our land
Strong enough to rule the heart of any man
This thing called love 
It can lift you up, it can put you down
Take your world and turn it all around
Ever since time nothin's ever been found
Stronger than love

Doors locked (doors locked) 
Blinds pulled (blinds pulled) 
Lights low (lights low) 
Flames high (flames high) 
My body (my body) 
My body 

My body (my body) 
My body 

My body 
Is walking in space 
My soul is in orbit 
With God face to face 

Floating, flipping 
Flying, tripping 

Tripping from Pottsville to Starlight 
Tripping from Starlight to Moonville 

On a rocket to 
The Fourth Dimension 
Total self awareness 
The intention 

My mind is as clear as country air 
I feel my flesh, all colors mesh 

Red black 
Blue brown 
Yellow crimson 
Green orange 
Purple pink 
Violet white 
White white 
White white 
White white 

All the clouds are cumuloft 
Walking in space 
Oh my God your skin is soft 
I love your face 

How dare they try to end this beauty? 
How dare they try to end this beauty? 

To keep us under foot 
They bury us in soot 
Pretending it's a chore 
To ship us off to war 

In this dive 
We rediscover sensation 
In this dive 
We rediscover sensation 

Walking in space 
We find the purpose of peace 
The beauty of life 
You can no longer hide 

Our eyes are open 
Our eyes are open 
Our eyes are open 
Our eyes are open 
Wide wide wide!

A Televisão
Composer(s): Chico Buarque
Performer(s): Chico Buarque; Adriana Maciel



O homem da rua
Fica só por teimosia
Não encontra companhia
Mas pra casa não vai não 
Em casa a roda
Já mudou, que a moda muda
A roda é triste, a roda é muda
Em volta lá da televisão
No céu a lua
Surge grande e muito prosa
Dá uma volta graciosa
Pra chamar as atenções
O homem da rua
Que da lua está distante
Por ser nego bem falante
Fala só com seus botões

O homem da rua
Com seu tamborim calado
Já pode esperar sentado
Sua escola não vem não
A sua gente
Está aprendendo humildemente
Um batuque diferente
Que vem lá da televisão
No céu a lua
Que não estava no programa
Cheia e nua, chega e chama
Pra mostrar evouções
O homem da rua
Não percebe o seu chamego
E por falta doutro nego
Samba só com seus botões

Os namorados
Já dispensam seu namoro
Quem quer riso, quem quer choro
Não faz mais esforço não
E a própria vida
Ainda vai sentar sentida
Vendo a vida mais vivida
Que vem lá da televisão
O homem da rua
Por ser nego conformado
Deixa a lua ali de lado
E vai ligar os seus botões
No céu a lua
Encabulada e já minguando
Numa nuvem se ocultando
Vai de volta pros sertões

Walking Down Madison
Composer(s): Kirsty MacColl; Johnny Marr
Performer(s): Kirsty MacColl



Walking down Madison - I swear I never had a gun
No I never shot no-one - I was only having fun
Walking down Madison - swear I never had a gun
I was philosophizing some
Checking out the bums

See you give 'em your nickels, your pennies and dimes
But you can't give 'em hope in these mercenary times, oh no
And you feel real guilty about the coat on your back
And the sandwich you had, oh no

From an uptown apartment to a knife on the A train
It's not that far
From the sharks in the penthouse to the rats in the basement
It's not that far
To the bag lady frozen asleep in the park
Oh no it's not that far
Would you like to see some more?
I can show you if you'd like to

Walking down Madison - I swear I never had a gun
No I never shot no-one - wouldn't do it just for fun
Walking down Madison - trying to keep my head screwed on
I was philosophizing some
Checking out the nuns

When you get to the corner don't look at those freaks
Keep your head down low and stay quick on your feet, oh yeah
The beaming boy from Harlem with the airforce coat
The ones who died
The ones who tried
The ones that sit and gloat

From an uptown apartment to a knife on the A train
It's not that far
From the sharks in the penthouse to the rats in the basement
It's not that far
To the bag lady frozen asleep on the church steps
It's not that far
Would you like to see some more?
I can show you if you'd like to

Within every city and town there's a Madison
Frozen lives for whom nothing's happening
Hungry children is a mother's dilemma
Dumpster diving to feed her baby Emma
So you walk on by like it doesn't affect you
The held out hand that you pay no respect to
Nickels and dimes won't even buy your guilt
Another wino burnt to death in his quilt
It's a cardboard city, newspaper metropolis
The system can't cope or keep on top of this
The authorities come as you're not for display
Do they solve the problem no they move him away
They're in a vicious circle of no fixed abode
The social won't pay 'em the money they're owed
When you've got no money you can't pay rent
Hypothermia kills 'cos the system is bent

From an uptown apartment to a knife on the A train
It's not that far
From the sharks in the penthouse to the rats in the basement
It's not that far
To the bag lady frozen asleep in the park
Oh no it's not that far
Would you like to see some more?
I can show you if you'd like to

From an uptown apartment to a knife on the A train
It's not that far
From the sharks in the penthouse to the rats in the basement
It's not that far
To the bag lady frozen asleep on the church steps
It's not that far
Would you like to see some more?
I can show you if you'd like to

In the subway sits a vacuous man
His grip on life is a bent tin can
It's a holy shrine where he burns his light
It makes things easy and removes his plight
For an hour or two but he can't escape
They're all penned in with government tape
There are good samaritans who bring the soup
The sally army with their bibles and boots
You can see yourself as it's not too far
One short trip you don't who they are
Till the night comes then it all comes back
Like the smell of patchouli and the armies of rats
It's a shame to be human it's a human shame
It seems we've forgotten we're one and the same

A teenager's romance is fickled or true 
A teenager's romance is red hot or blue 
You're either in misery or high on a crest 
A teenager's romance is like all the rest 

They tell us we're different 
We haven't the right 
To decide for ourselves, dear 
What's black and what's white 

Keep saying you love me 
And they'll look upon 
A teenager's romance 
That goes on and on

A Teenager In Love
Composer(s): Doc Pomus - Mort Shuman
First release by: Dion & the Belmonts - 1959
Covered by multiple other artists



Each time we have a quarrel, it almost breaks my heart
Cause I am so afraid that we will have to part
Each night I ask the stars up above
Why must I be a teenager in love?

One day I feel so happy, next day I feel so sad
I guess I'll learn to take the good with the bad
Each night I ask the stars up above
Why must I be a teenager in love?

I cried a tear for nobody but you
I'll be a lonely one if you should say we're through.

Well if you want to make me cry, that won't be so hard to do
If you should say goodbye, I'll still go on loving you
Each night I ask the stars up above
Why must I be a teenager in love?

I cried a tear for nobody but you
I'll be a lonely one if you should say we're through.

Well if you want to make me cry, that won't be so hard to do
And if you should say goodbye, I'll still go on loving you
Each night I ask the stars up above
Why must I be a teenager in love?

Why must I be a teenager in love?
Why must I be a teenager in love?
Why must I be a teenager in love?

Composer(s): Robert Johnson

I woke up this mornin', feelin' round for my shoes
Know by that I got these old walkin' blues, well
Woke this mornin' feelin’ round for my shoes
But you know by that, I got these old walkin' blues

Lord I feel like blowin’ my old lonesome horn
Got up this mornin’, my little Bernice was gone, Lord
I feel like blowin’ my lonesome horn
Well I got up this mornin’, whoa all I had was gone

Well, leave this mornin' if I have to, ride the blinds
I feel mistreated, and I don't mind dyin'
Leavin’ this mornin', if I have to ride the blind
Babe, I’ve been mistreated, baby and I don't mind dyin'

Well, some people tell me that the worried blues ain't bad
Worst old feelin' I most ever had
Some people tell me that these old worried old blues ain't bad
It's the worst old feelin', I most ever had

She’s got a elgin movement from her head down to her toes
Break in on a dollar most anywhere she goes
Ooh, from her head down to her toes
Lord, she break in on a dollar, most anywhere she goes

Teenage Idol
((French Version: L'Idole Des Jeunes) (by Johnny Hallyday) - 1962))
Composer(s): Jack Lewis
First release by: Rick Nelson - 1962
Covered by multiple other artists



Some people call me a teenage idol 
Some people say they envy me 
I guess they got no way of knowing 
How lonesome I can be  

I need somebody to be my baby 
Someone to tell my troubles to 
I've got no time to ever find her 
Cause I'm just passing through  

I travel around from town to lonely town 
I guess I'll always be just a rolling stone 
If I find fortune and fame and lots of people know my name 
That won't mean a thing if I'm all alone  

I get no rest when I'm feeling weary 
I got to pack my bags and go 
I got to be somewhere tomorrow 
To smile and do my show  

I travel around from town to lonely town 
I guess I'll always be just a rolling stone 
If I find fortune and fame and lots of people know my name 
That won't mean a thing if I'm all alone  

Some people call me a teenage idol 
Some people say they envy me 
I guess they got no way of knowing 
How lonesome I can be 
How lonesome I can be

Walking Blues 
Performer(s): Ma Rainey



Woke up this morning, up this morning
With my head bowed down, hey, hey, hey
Woke up this morning with my head bowed down
I had that mean old feeling, I was in the wrong man's town

Mailman's been here, mailman's been here
But didn't leave no news, hey, hey, hey
Mailman's been here but didn't leave no news
That's the reason why mama's got the walking blues

Walked and walked till I, walked and walked
I almost lost my mind, hey, hey, hey
Walked and walked till I almost lost my mind
I was afraid to stop walking 'cause I might lose some time

Got a short time to make it, short time to make it
And a long ways to go, Lord, Lord, Lord
Short time to make it and a long way to go
Trying to find the town they call San Antonio

Thought I'd rest me, thought I'd rest me
I couldn't hear no news, Lord, Lord, Lord
Thought I'd rest me, I couldn't hear no news
I'll soon be there 'cause I got the walking blues

L'idole Des Jeunes
((Adapted from: Teenage Idol (by Rick Nelson) - 1962))
Composer(s): Jack Lewis - Ralph Bernet
Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday - 1962



Les gens m'appellent l'idole des jeunes
Il en est même qui m'envient
Mais ils ne savent pas dans la vie
Que parfois je m'ennuie

Je cherche celle qui serait mienne
Mais comment faire pour la trouver
Le temps s'en va, le temps m'entraîne
Je ne fais que passer

Dans la nuit je file tout seul de ville en ville
Je ne suis qu'une pierre qui roule toujours
J'ai bien la fortune et plus et mon nom partout dans la rue
Pourtant je cherche tout simplement l'Amour

Plus d'une fille souvent me guettent
Quand s'éteignent les projecteurs
Soudain sur moi elles se jettent
Mais pas une dans mon cœur

Dans la nuit je file tout seul de ville en ville
Je ne suis qu' une pierre qui roule toujours
Il me faut rire et danser et le spectacle terminé
S'en aller ailleurs au lever du jour

Les gens m'appellent l'idole des jeunes
Il en est même qui m'envient
Mais s'ils pouvaient savoir dans la vie
Combien tout seul je suis
Combien tout seul je suis

What loneliness can do
Since I've been away
I have loved you more each day

Walking back to happiness

A Teardrop On A Rose
Composer(s): Hank Williams 
Performer(s): Hank Williams 
and multiple other artists



While strolling thru a lovely garden
As day was drawing to a close...
My eyes beheld a tragic story
I saw a teardrop on a rose

It should have been a tear of gladness
But deep inside the sorrow shows
A trusting heart had just been broken
I saw a teardrop on a rose

A sobbing tear that follows parting
Holds all the pain that sorrow knows
A false goodbye a life is shattered
There lies a story on a rose

The tear will dry the rose will wither
When spring and winter comes and goes
I loved, I lost, my story ended
With just a teardrop on a rose

Walkin' After Midnight
Composer(s): Don Hecht; Alan Block
Performer(s): Patsy Cline



I go out walking after midnight
Out in the moonlight just like we used to do
I'm always walking after midnight searching for you
I walk for miles along the highway
Well that's just my way of saying I love you
I'm always walking after midnight searching for you
I stopped to see a weeping willow
Crying on his pillow maybe he's crying for me
And as the skies turn gloomy
Night blooms will whisper to me I'm lonesome as I can be
I go out walking after midnight out in the moonlight
Just hoping maybe you're somewhere walking after midnight searching for me
I stopped to see a weeping willow
Crying on his pillow maybe he's crying for me
And as the skies turn gloomy
Night blooms will whisper to me I'm lonesome as I can be
I'm out walking after midnight out in the moonlight
Just hoping maybe you're somewhere walking after midnight searching for me

A Tear, A Kiss, A Smile
Composer(s): L. Wolfe Gilbert - Paul Insetta
Performer(s): Jerry Vale; Percy Faith; Josef Locke



A tear, a kiss, a smile, these things make life worthwhile
A kiss to dry a tear dimmed eye and then the smile returns again
So if I've been unkind, if you look you're sure to find
In all true love the story of a tear, a kiss, and a smile

So if I've been unkind, if you look you're sure to find
In all true love the story of a tear, a kiss, and a smile

Walkin'
Composer(s): Lindsey Steele; Mary Lou Williams
Performer(s): Nat King Cole



I’m walking out the door with you on my mind
I’m walking out the door with you on my mind
But every step away from you, I feel like crying

I walked into the street, talking to myself
I walked into the street, talking to myself
No matter what my conscience says
I’m thinking ‘bout nobody else

I met a brand new chick, phoned to make a date
I met a brand new chick, phoned to make a date
But when I rang her number, I got your number by mistake
You say you love me baby, don’t know what to do
You say you love me baby, don’t know what to do
I’m sure of one thing, I’m in love with you

A Tear From A Woman's Eyes
Composer(s): Lamont Dozier - Brian Holland - Eddie Holland
Performer(s): The Temptations



I saw the saddest thing, the other day
When an old man passed my way
Walking the streets so all alone
All because he had no home

But the saddest thing I've ever seen
Is a tear from a woman's eye
A tear from a woman's eye
Hmmm

I saw a man, no shoes on his feet
But the saddest thing is to see a woman weep
A woman is a tender thing
To see her cry, a sad, sad thing

Nothing touches me deeper inside
Than a tear from a woman's eye
A tear from a woman's eye
Hmmm

A woman's tears dropping on her cheek
Is like a sound of thunder, that loudly rings
'Cause when I see her cry, I know she hurts inside

Yes, the saddest thing I've ever seen
Is a tear from a woman's eye
A tear from a woman's eye
Hmmm

Sad, sad thing is a tear from a woman's eye
A sad, sad thing is to see a woman cry
Sad, sad, sad thing is a tear from a woman's eye
Sad, sad, sad thing is to see a woman cry

Walkin' With A Mountain
Composer(s): Ian Hunter
Performer(s): Mott The Hoople



A mountain train's coming down the tracks
She ain't wasting time
She's following me, 'cos I'm going back, right to the end of the line
She know's I ain't been anywhere
Because I'll come back everytime to her

Walking with a mountain
Walking with a mountain

The troubles and tears, I take 'em in years - I left so many behind
Maybe it's strange to rearrange - who know's what I'll find
But anything's better than the life I've known
I can't face anything that low

Walking with a mountain
Walking with a mountain

Walking with a mountain
Walking with a mountain

Now when she talks to me, I can see just where I'm headed to
She sits, drinks, takes it all in, just to admire the view
But if I had my choice in life
I'd take that woman for my wife

Walking with a mountain
Walking with a mountain

(Repeat Chorus several times)

Jumping jack flash, it's a gas
Jumping jack flash, it's a gas
